Coming to you for the second year in a row, O3 World is hosting Innovation Day, a three-hour string of lightning talks, live demos and interactions showcasing new and emerging technologies from Philadelphia’s top agencies and innovation labs on Friday, May 4th from 8:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. during Philly Tech Week 2018 presented by Comcast.

Similar to last year, we’ll continue to discuss emerging technologies such as voice user interfaces, artificial intelligence, augmented reality and more! Participants will be sharing their real-life experiences with the technologies and demonstrate how they’ve used it to improve efficiencies and overall user experiences.

Mike Gadsby, Co-Founder and CXO, Lauren Slattery, Head of UX Strategy, and Dan Laufer, Developer of O3 World

Vue.JS is a rapidly rising contender in the world of Single-Page Application frameworks. It borrows a bit of familiar template syntax from AngularJS, and comes with the performance of React. You’ll learn the basics of this framework in a 1/2 day session with Chariot’s front-end developer experts.

You’ll learn how Vue components are created, how to communicate between components, generate content with both templates and JSX, write tests against your components, integrate routing, and manage state in vuex and externally with Redux.
